Carotte du Restaurant, 1844. - J'offrirai a monsieur un petit diner distingue et pas cher'. - Tres bien! - Six douzaines marennes, haut Soterne comme monsieur prend toujours; bisque d'ecrevisses, barbue, chevreuil, Bordeaux-laffitte... - Diable! Dites donc... - A douze francs, comme la derniere fois, un petit faisan, asperges, un soufle et du Sillery frappe, comme monsieur le prend toujours'. Etonne, ebloui, vexe, flatte; l'amphitrion est enfonce. Waiter: May I offer the gentleman a distinguished and inexpensive dinner'. Diner: Very good! Waiter: Six dozen marennes oysters, a marvellous Soterne that monsieur always has; crayfish bisque, brill, venison, Bordeaux-laffitte... Diner: Damn! Tell me...'.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Carotte du Restaurant," a captivating masterpiece by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, painted in 1844, offers a glimpse into the intricate world of dining and social etiquette of the 19th century. The painting depicts a waiter in a grand restaurant, engaged in a conversation with a well-dressed diner, who is seated at a table adorned with fine tableware and a white tablecloth. The waiter, with a tray of delicacies in hand, proposes a distinguished and inexpensive dinner to the gentleman. The diner, intrigued by the offer, asks for details, and the waiter reels off an impressive list of dishes, including six dozen oysters, a marvelous Soterne wine, crayfish bisque, brill, venison, and Bordeaux-laffitte. The diner, visibly astonished and dazzled by the offer, expresses his excitement and asks for the price. The waiter reveals that the meal will cost twelve francs, the same as the last time, and includes a small pheasant, asparagus, a souffle, and some chilled Sillery. The diner's reaction is a mix of emotions - astonishment, offended, flattered, and perhaps a touch of vexation. The waiter, with a knowing smile, seems to have the upper hand in this exchange, as if he has skillfully maneuvered the conversation to sell the dinner to the diner. The painting captures the essence of the power dynamics between the waiter and the diner, as well as the importance of fine dining and social status in 19th-century France. This painting, titled "Carotte du Restaurant," is a testament to Honore Daumier's exceptional talent for capturing the nuances of human interaction and the intricacies of daily life in 19th-century France. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of fine dining and social etiquette of the time. "From Les Carottes" (not the company), this painting is a true masterpiece of French art.
